I suppose this is what you'd want in a good Supreme Court Justice. He asks challenging, probing questions to both sides and doesn't give a hint of which way he's leaning. If that's the standard, then Anthony Kennedy wins Justice of the Year with his performance in today's hearing for Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. The problem, of course, is that this case wouldn't be happening at all if Justice Kennedy hadn't joined the majority in forcing gay marriage down the throats of all 50 states back in 2015. The Supremes are now being asked to decide whether Christian bakers can be forced to bake a cake for a the gay weddings that Kennedy made possible, and as is so often the case, it appears he'll be the deciding vote on this one too:

He asked a lawyer for the Trump administration whether the baker, Jack Phillips, could put a sign in his window saying, “We don’t bake cakes for gay weddings.” The lawyer, Noel J. Francisco said yes, so long as the cakes were custom made.
